Scientists probe hidden link between immune cells and obesity
NCT ID NCT04898400
Summary
This small Mayo Clinic study aimed to understand how specific immune cells called eosinophils interact with body fat in people with obesity and insulin resistance. Researchers enrolled 4 participants who were undergoing a weight-loss procedure to collect fat tissue and blood samples. The goal was to gather basic knowledge about these interactions, not to test a treatment.
